Hey Lily welcome to D&T
You are right, once I was over being pissed off I realized that most of these people are doing these things more out of desperation for money than anything else.That does not excuse the crappy things that many of them pull, but does make it easier to not take what they do too personally.
As an update to this thread I did email him once I felt I could write something that would not be taken the wrong way, and he did respond back to let me know that my page was now down. Of course this is the second time now that he has told me that my site has been deleted, so I have to take what he says with some humor. I was glad to see that this person was at least willing to respond back to me, because even though what he did was illegal the reality is I probably have far more to lose than he does if we were to start going at it online. I really did appreciate all of the info, and support that I had through this thread. I am sure that was what helped me to calm down in the first place. Plus some of the information is very helpful if I ever have any future problems with him.

I think he probably is responding because he knows he's in the wrong and responding is a way to keep you from reporting him for just another couple of weeks or so.... but based on what you're saying, he certainly sounds like he's playing on your lack of desire to go public with his abuse.
A very convoluted situation indeed....
Thank you , I did more lurking than posting on the HDH forum My postings on HDH were also pretty well behaved back then. That's the biggest problem with me once I feel at home I stop censoring myself Now if my volunteer web designer really wanted to see an identity crisis all he has to do is read some of my 500 plus posts here on D&T they make my web site look fairly sane in comparison..

Your 'quirkiness,' btw, is a way for me to say that you're incredibly unique, funny, kind, sweet, and generous in a combination that is uniquely yours. I love that about you and always will.
